Events - Public Registration

You've created an event in CiviCRM and you want it - or want it not - to appear for the public.  How is this done?

In CiviCRM ..

1. Go to the Manage Events screen (CiviCRM->Events->Manage Events)
2. For the event, use the Configure link on the right to go to the Info and Settings page
3. At the bottom of the page are some checkboxes...
   1. If "Public Event" is checked ... then it will appear to the public (i.e. non-members)
   2. If "Public Event" is not checked... then only members will see it in the member portal
   3. If the "Is this Event Active?" box is NOT checked then the event cannot be seen by the public OR by members.
